Video Transcript for Reese Fifth Wheel Installation Kit RP50140 Review
Today we're going to review part number RP50140. This is the Reese quick install custom bracket kit for fifth wheel trailer hitches. This is a custom-fit part number. It is designed to fit the Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 standard and quad-cab, starting in 2003; also the Dodge Ram Megacab 1500, 2500, and 3500, starting in 2006. With any custom part number what I do like to recommend is just to go to our website, use our fit guide. Put in your year and model vehicle and it will tell you if this is the correct part for your application. This part includes the brackets and the hardware to install them. These are custom brackets that will mount beneath your truck bed, provides an attachment points for the fifth wheel rails.
The rails are not included. Those we do sell separately. They use a RP58058 and that part is listed as a related product on this product page. Once these brackets are installed on your frame and then the rails are installed it'll sit in the truck bed and allow installation of a fifth-wheel trailer hitch in your truck bed. These are vehicle-specific brackets. They mount to existing holes in your vehicle's frame and because of that it will minimize drilling and measuring time and it'll also cut the installation time in half when compared with the universal bracket systems. This kit does include the brackets and the hardware.
One note, it will not work on the Dodge Ram models with gas engines and overload springs, starting in 2010. The brackets themselves have a nice black powder-coat finish to help resist corrosion. Again, this part includes the four brackets and the hardware to install them. That should do it for the review on part number RP50140, the Reese quick install custom bracket kit for fifth-wheel trailer hitches. .

Five hours to install; which included a half hour searching for the key to the padlock on my spare. E-Trailer linked me to an installation video which really helped. I took my time and measured three times before I drilled the bed. Installation is a lot easier with someone to hold the bolts from the top. I fabricated mounting brackets on my last truck, but these were worth the money and I didn't have to drill the frame! Good design and straight-forward installation. My only issue was the video didn't show one bolt install that secured the driver's side rear bracket to the bottom of the frame. I was going off the video only and wasn't using the written instructions. Make sure you go step by step using both. Also, some parts are clearly for a different application so there will be a few parts left over. My experience with e-trailer was awesome.

Easy to install. Does not come with all hardware pictured in photo. Make sure to keep all spacers/ blocks from rails if removing from another vehicle to use with this kit. Instructions do say some hardware is with the rail kit. All in all a great product. E-trailer has great videos and support.

Review from a similar Quick-Install in Accessories and Parts
Can’t use the carriage bolts that you supplied, except in the middle of the rail. There’s no room to put a socket on the nut between the beam and bed, there’s just enough room to use an open end wrench and torque the bolts from the bed side, Which means you have to buy 8 bolts. A video stated the same thing, you believe it’s a one man’s job, it’s not. That’s why you supplied the carriage bolts.

Very happy how soon the product I ordered was at my door step. 3 days after I ordered it. Put the base to my 5th wheel on my 2017 250 diesel sd took me around 5 hrs, would have been faster with 2 people. The base fit my husky 16k prefect when I done torquing all the bolts. Going to use this hitch to pull my 29.5 Durango EZ 1500.

Hi, George. Thanks for your email. I bought the frame rails to marry up with my Reese hitch and I wasn't disappointed. It installed on my 2003 f250 perfectly and hooked up to the 5th wheel without a problem.

Review from a similar Quick-Install in Accessories and Parts
We ordered a bracket kit for our new 2017 F350. It was needed to install our Reese fifth wheel. which we use to pull our RV. Product was on back order by manufacturer, however Delisa at Etrailer diligently kept us very informed with updates & shipping status. My husband & son were able to install in a couple of hours. Looks great, outstanding craftsmanship & over exceeded our expectations! We would highly recommend!!!!!

- Do You Carry a Custom Install Kit to Install a Fifth Wheel With Husky EZ Roller on My 2006 Dodge RamBed rails are universal, for the most part, to the 5th Wheel Hitches. They attach the same way, so your Husky EZ Roller will fit the bed rails no problem. Sometimes, you run into a problem getting the bed rails to match up to the install brackets on the truck frame. It does not always happen, but you can get into a situation where your Husky bed rails will not line up with your Reese install brackets. We always recommend using the same manufacturer install brackets and rails. For your...

If it is a gas engine AND overload springs it's not a fit. For just a bracket kit without the rails you would need the part # RP50140.

If your RBW hitch uses industry standard rails this kit will work for you. If the hitch doesn't then you may need to replace the hitch because RBW hitches are no longer made. We also do not have the pins you need to install the hitch into the rails.

I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well. Since the hardware that attaches the rails to the brackets is considered one time use you'd need to replace the hardware with the part # 58164.

All the necessary hardware is included in this kit to attach the brackets to the frame of the truck.

view full answer... - Will a Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Installation Kit from a 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 Fit a 2012 Ram 2500A 2012 Dodge Ram 2500 short or long bed will use Reese installation kit # RP50140-58 that you have referenced. A 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 does NOT use the same installation kit so the brackets will be different. You can use the same rails but you will need to replace the brackets using # RP50140. And I also recommend replacing the 10 bolt hardware kit that attaches the rails to the brackets using kit # RP58430.

Installation requires a fair bit of drilling into the vehicle frame since the under-bed brackets cannot be pre-drilled for every possible vehicle. According to my contact at Reese this kit will still work in your 2008 Ram 2500 diesel, although the installation will be more involved and take longer than using a custom-fit type install kit. We do offer...
view full answer... - Fifth Wheel Rails and Brackets For 2008 Dodge Ram Pickup to Use Reese 14kThe hardware, rails and brackets you need to install the Reese 14k fifth wheel in your 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 short bed is part # RP50140-58. This Reese quick-install kit does not require drilling into the frame. If you already have Reese rails, I recommend part # RP50140 that includes just the brackets and hardware to attach the brackets to the frame. You also need the hardware to connect the rails in the bed to the brackets part # RP58430.
view full answer... - Custom Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch Bracket Kit for 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 Mega CabFor your 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 Mega Cab you'll need # RP50140 for a custom bracket kit. A custom kit will install much faster and require much less drilling than a universal kit like # RP30439. If you need the rails in your truck's bed as well you can use # RP50140-58. This is the same custom install kit with the rails included.
view full answer... - Correct Reese 5th Wheel Frame Brackets for a 2012 Ram 2500If you already have a set of Reese Above Bed Base Rails then you will need the Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit part # RP50140 to install them on your 2012 Ram 2500. If you don't have a set of Reese Above Bed Base Rails then you will need the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit part # RP50140-58. The above will then allow you to install a Reese 16K 5th Wheel Hitch like part # RP30047.
